Eleven months old
A year ago I went off of bedrest and, in earnest, resumed an active life, all with the expectation that I would have Eli early. Of course, he lingered until the very end, but I bring this up to illustrate how in utero behavior does not predict future behavior.
Elias is anything but a lingerer. The kid is on the go, constantly, and really gets angry when we stop him from climbing the step stool, stop him from putting another car in the toilet, or stop him from diving off the couch. (We are total hard-asses, I know.)
He is still taking a random step here and there, but I hesitate to say he's walking just yet. I'm actually excited for walking, because I think it will be slower than crawling...at least for the first week.
The eleventh month is a milestone for me, too. It means I will just be pumping at work for one more month. I could jump up and down. I stopped pumping at eleven months with Gus since I was starting my job at Orbitz and didn't feel like trying to figure out that routine my first weeks. Now, I might actually miss the quiet time as I can retreat and work in the new Mom's room at work while taking care of business.
Eh, I think I'll be ok.

I can't wait to see the boys! And mom and dad, too. Dwight and I are wondering about the weekend of of Feb. 17 & 18. Let us know if that would work for you. If it doesn't we'll just work on another day.
Love
Pat
